Prouts

Alfred Prout from Launceston, CON was in Tetbury sometime between 1878 and 1881.

Described by Frank Peters as "a shoe and clothes shop, as well as a proper grocers shop. The fellow that worked for the grocer would have to take anything on his bike, whether it was a bag of sugar or a side of bacon, to deliver it to the customers. There was usually so much on that he couldn't get off the bike without falling off."  The bank took over the stores eventually.
